Bridging Generations: Our CEO Ava Turner Talks Intergenerational Connections on the Love, Sweet Love Podcast
We’re thrilled to share that our CEO, Ava Turner, joined the Love, Sweet Love podcast for Episode 42, titled “Volunteer Grandparents and Childcare in Seniors’ Homes – Why We Need Intergenerational Connections.”
In this inspiring conversation, Ava explores the powerful benefits of bridging generations — discussing how resident‑care centres can partner with childcare programs to create joyful, meaningful connections. She draws on her experience leading George Derby Care Centre and reflects on how intergenerational initiatives nurture community, purpose, and belonging for both seniors and children.

We believe that fostering connections across ages is more important than ever — and we’re honoured that Ava had the opportunity to share our vision with the Love, Sweet Love audience.
We invite you to tune in and be inspired by:
• why loneliness and isolation are rising in both older adults and young children
• how creating programs that bring together “young voices” and “wise voices” can enrich lives
• practical insights and real‑world examples from senior care and childcare integration
Thank you to host Gayle Beavil and the Love, Sweet Love team for this meaningful collaboration — we hope you’ll give this episode a listen, and then share your thoughts with us about how intergenerational connections have influenced your own family or community.
